THE BIRD FEEDER SYNDROME

I got this as a E-mail from a friend.
It's funny, but it makes a lot of sense.

I bought a bird feeder. I hungit on my back porch and filledit with seed. What a beauty ofa bird feeder it is, as I filled itlovingly with seed. Within aweek we had hundreds of birdstaking advantage of thecontinuous flow of free andeasily accessible food.

But then the birds startedbuilding nests in the boardsof the patio, above the table,and next to the barbecue.Then came the poop. It waseverywhere: on the patio tile,the chairs, the table ..everywhere!Then some of the birdsturned mean. They woulddive bomb me and try topeck me even though I hadfed them out of my ownpocket.

And others birds wereboisterous and loud. Theysat on the feeder andsquawked and screamed atall hours of the day and nightand demanded that I fill itwhen it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn't evensit on my own back porchanymore. So I took down thebird feeder and in three daysthe birds were gone. I cleanedup their mess and took downthe many nests they had builtall over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was likeit used to be.... quiet, sereneand no one demanding theirrights to a free meal.Now let's see........Our government gives outfree food, subsidized housing,free medical care, and freeeducation and allows anyoneborn here to be an automaticcitizen.

Then the illegals came by thetens of thousands. Suddenlyour taxes went up to pay forfree services; small apartmentsare housing 5 families; youhave to wait 6 hours to be seenby an emergency room doctor;your child's 2nd grade class isbehind other schools becauseover half the class doesn't speakEnglish.

Corn Flakes now come in abilingual box; I have to'press one' to hear my banktalk to me in English, andpeople waving flags other than 'Our own' aresquawking and screamingin the streets, demandingmore rights and free liberties.

Just my opinion, but maybeit's time for the governmentto take down the bird feeder.

Too true! The country aka liberal birds are squawking for "change". If they elect Osama . . . we'll have one of these "visitors" as our president. The "change" we'll see will not be a welcome one. I have a hard time accepting that there are enough stupid people in this country these days that would even consider electing this joker, but it looks like there are many out there that are for him.

Now I'm not a McCain supporter either. I'd rather see Ron Paul, but as usual our choice comes down to the lesser of two evils.
